Alumni reviews

Jac and Simon were really thoughtful instructors - they were generous with their time, and have deep knowledge and experience to speak to some of the most relevant AI topics in our industry. It was also great to upskill how I've been using Claude code, which will help me level up my team as well.

As a head of product, this course has been really amazing to get deeper on the tools, understanding to get efficiency in the process while spending more time jamming on different hypothesis on a case study. It has definitely given me more ideas on how skills can been shared, building consistency with AI on team capabilities and articulation of outcomes. Thanks Jac & Simon

This course truly connected the dots for me, helping me turn my knowledge and AI habits into a scalable, reusable framework. It was a real pleasure to participate in the live sessions with Jac and Simon, both are exceptional. Additionally, the opportunity to connect with and learn from my peers was equally valuable.

This course helped me see how AI can support product and design workflows in a more practical, hands-on way. One of the biggest highlights was learning how to move from an idea into something more structured, reusable, and ready to build with Claude Code.

I recently completed Jac’s AI-Powered Strategic Design Accelerator course and it genuinely exceeded my expectations. So many short courses either leave big gaps or try to cover too much at a surface level, but it’s clear Jac has put serious thought, care, and craft into making this course practical and valuable. I genuinely got so much out of it and have already found myself going back to key videos as a reference. For me, that’s the sign of content that actually sticks. Like anything, you’ll get out what you put in. Do the assignments, apply the strategies, lean in and you’ll come out a sharper, more confident designer.
